Tony, know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. May the love of friends, family and church (WUMC) bring some comfort at this difficult time. I can't imagine having another Bible School without her; because of her unwavering love and dedication to the children that had her as their music and program director. I will forever cherish these memories of working with her and again my heart goes out to you.

To the Gordon Family,
I looked up to Carloma as a teenager. She was so kind and thoughtful, and one of the best majorettes that the C.A. Brown High School Band ever had! She was also the first singer for my late brother Skip Wright´s band, the Soul Variations. She will be missed, and know that the Wright family (Reginald Sr., Reginald Jr. myself, and Caroline W. Canty) loved her and will be praying for your faith and strength in the days to come.
